Carl Hayden Community High School Robotics Club is located in Phoenix Arizona. It has been a low-performing school for years and is not expected to change. But there are bright spots for students to grab on to. Faridodin Lajvard: the name is hard to pronounced, but the teacher is inspiring. His students just call him 'Coach Fredi' or Ledge. Back in August of 2009 there was some discussion and talk about robotics and what it can do. The passion is robotics. And the teacher and students share it. This is a way to expand his passion about a field (2 comments)

phoenix: Freddie Mac in Phoenix: Auction Day Nears
- 07/28/10 01:04 AM
Welcome Freddie Mac to the Arizona Convention Center on August 7th. The mortgage giant has a list of 135 homes that will be auctioned off. The catch is that you have to be an owner occupant. Not much of a catch. Just don't be one of those rich, mean investor types... And, if you qualify, you can get 3% of your closing costs paid for. The real estate sales unit of Freddie Mac is named 'Home Steps', and is in charge of the event. Apparently there are about a third of the homes on the list that are set aside (0 comments)

Companies involved were sometimes just the place the people worked at and committed the scams, and some companies were probably set up just for that purpose. We will stay tuned to the events as they play out. Overstate borrowers income, assets and credit scores, false escrows created to reflect downpayments never made, overstated real estate appraisals, straw buyers, kickbacks. The (5 comments)

phoenix: Phoenix Commercial Brokerage: New Player in Town
- 07/11/10 07:27 PM
NEW KID IN TOWN (EAGLES) Watch out Phoenix Commercial real estate. A new guy is in town. His name is Jones Lange LaSalle out of Chicago. And apparently, he has deep pockets. They say he is one ornery hombre, and a force to be dealt with. The company has been a full-service firm around many parts of the world for some years, and now has sights and an address in the Phoenix market. Seems as though the increase of very large institutions that own massive amounts of commercial real estate makes it important to offer full services that clients demand. The commercial (0 comments)

phoenix: Phoenix Light Rail: Cool Map with Extensions
- 07/11/10 06:29 PM
Cool Map of Light Rail line and Extensions Ok, so when I see a cool feature that has some intelligence behind it, I have to share it. The Phoenix Metro Light Rail line started with a 20-mile set of tracks in December 2008. Probably the newest in the country. And it cost an average $70 million a mile to build and install. More than the tracks and cars alone, they had to move those darn utilities away from the middle of the street!! You don't want to be down under there working on a leaky sewer pipe while a $25 million train is rumbling (0 comments)

phoenix: Phoenix Light Rail: Construction Marches On
- 07/11/10 06:12 PM
So if Phoenix is broke and laying off employees, why are they spending millions? Just when we heard for months and months how low the Phoenix city coffers are, there is still plenty of money to buy up and demolish homes, prepare utility relocation, all to prepare 19th Ave for the 3-mile light rail extension. The work will be completed between ButlerDrive and Townley Avenue. The project is supposed to last 6 months, and will prepare the frontage roads for ongoing construction work. And in August, you will begin to see the installation of a Phoenix Arts Commission-funded gabion wall. It is scheduled in (5 comments)
